Is it worth it?

[Xap]

I would look at the more solo-friendly classes (Shaman, Druid, Necro, Mage) and jump right in!

I only play about 3-10 hours a week depending on my schedule, and I love it. It does take a decent amount of time for major landmark moments (it took me about 2 months to get to lvl 30 on my new SK) but It is super satisfying and fun once you get there.

Just be aware that the pace of the game is very slow if not played no-life neckbeard level. If I have time off or am working from home, it really is fun to no-life it and spend an entire day playing p1999 like I used to back in 1999/2000 era.
